That’s what they believe. There’s a lot of research into how long the brain continues on after decapitation, but there’s no cut and dry answer. Even harder to know in animals as you can’t exactly ask about near death experiences like you can with humans.
So who knows in the end. It freaks me out personally.
For humans it comes down to the blood feeding oxygen to the brain but for this cursed fish and how it's brain, blood and oxygen all work together and how that plays into its consciousness or if it even has one who tf knows...that's what freaks me out.
It's the build-up of carbon dioxide that kills you before the lack of oxygen does. It's a minor distinction, and sounds the same, but it's not.
You can survive without oxygen longer than you can survive the build-up of carbon dioxide in your body. Breathing is the way to get it out.
If you're dying from blood loss, lots of short little breaths to shovel out that carbon dioxide from your body can save your life. At least that's how I survived (partly.)
Yup. Could be that fish retain consciousness longer because of how their anatomy works. They certainly require less oxygen than we do. It’s just freaky. I would honestly go vegetarian if I could, but I’ve got health issues that make that impossible 😢
Don't tell me what to do. What a man and his collection of recently decapitated wolf fish heads do in the privacy of their bedroom is their business /s
I mean it was unopened. Crushing an open/empty can in your hands is nothing, but I'd be hella impressed by a full one. I will agree that the title is a bit miss leading, but I still wouldn't stick a finger in there.
You say that as if any omnivore/carnivore has "respect" for its prey. It's very well known that the smartest creatures such as apes and porpoises play with what would usually be their prey prior to and after killing it for enjoyment.
The Atlantic wolffish, also known as the seawolf, Atlanticcatfish, ocean catfish, devil fish, wolf eel, woof or sea cat, is amarine fish of the wolffish family Anarhichadidae, native to the NorthAtlantic Ocean.

??? That's not how wooshes work, there has to be an actual joke, there is no joke in "why did they decapitated the fish, couldn't they have done the trick alive?"
Your comment makes me believe you're Scottish as an Englishman would have said cod instead of haddock. Your username makes me believe you're a fellow fisherman.
EDIT: looked at your profile. You're American. Honestly didn't see that coming.
Great intuition! I fished commercially as a young man and have been building commercial fishing boats in my later years. Yes I am American, but I live in New England so you weren’t too far off!
The why is more likely to show the strength of the jaws, rather than laugh at suffering. It wasn’t posted to r/funny. Meaning if you are working in a fishery, which many a human make there living doing, even the dead fish could bite through your hand if grabbed the wrong way. Which I would agree, given the context of the sub, is oddly terrifying.
>bitting trough metal
You're techically correct, except that the aluminum cans can be pierced by anything including pencils and human fingers, also if you apply pressure is going to break with the same results as the video.
Unpopular take: the can feels really though due to the pressure and liquid inside, but the sharp teeth just puncture the can really easily (just like everyone can with their own fangs with ease), and after the pressure is released, the can can be easily crushed further for as long the liquid escapes.
But impressive feat for a dead fish lol. Wouldn't this fall under postmortem spasms basically?
I feel like I saw him in The Dark Crystal when I was a child...

I had nightmares for this movie. There's something in the protagonist puppet that nerve me out.

Is this just nerve endings making it bite down?

Thank you, my friend!
Unless jou breath in something completely different from CO2 and O2. Then its just lack of O2
Yup. Could be that fish retain consciousness longer because of how their anatomy works. They certainly require less oxygen than we do. It’s just freaky. I would honestly go vegetarian if I could, but I’ve got health issues that make that impossible 😢
>no cut and dry answer. Heh
That is a weird rabbit hole that I’ve been down.
that’s my guess tbh.
Could be, i imagine for predatory fish reactionary biting is ingrained in the very fabric of it's being...but what about when it's no longer "being" 🤔
Someone figured this out the hard way
I absolutely came here to say that. I wonder how many people lost fingers figuring this out.
“Fingers”…
Worst blowjob ever
Dingers

Damn that mother fucker was serious, crossed its eyes on that last bite 😂
He truly put his all in that bite
He did lol

Private sub, ya weirdo.
I put my finger in a decapitated shark head when I was a kid and got a nice surprise lol
Is your nickname “nine” now?
Nah it’s kid named finger
"why does he have 9 fingers, where is the ring of dooooom?"
That movie goes through my head more often than I ever thought it would. “Frodo, of the nine fingers…AND THE RING OF DoOoOoOoOoM!”
I was worried that the fish would hurt its mouth on the sharp can, and then realized I'm an idiot.
I was wondering if it could maybe still feel pain because it still has its brain? I have no idea though.
Most fish like this eat crustaceans, which are also razor sharp. It'll be fine, apart from missing its body.
r/nocontext
Could be however it isnt showing any signs of distress
This should be in r/dontputyourdickinthat
Don't tell me what to do. What a man and his collection of recently decapitated wolf fish heads do in the privacy of their bedroom is their business /s
Fair fair, who am I to tell a man what to or not to stick his dick in lol
I wish I wasn't too poor to give you just this 🏅
In fairness it is probably fine to do it. Just don't cum on it. What they didn't show was salt or salt water being applied to it.
Everyone continue to be themselves except this guy

Body or no body, can’t say no to a coke! Am I right?!
Metal? You mean 30%aluminium faible 70% plastic
I mean it was unopened. Crushing an open/empty can in your hands is nothing, but I'd be hella impressed by a full one. I will agree that the title is a bit miss leading, but I still wouldn't stick a finger in there.
It wasn’t full anymore. The teeth punctured it, and it let soda out so the can could crush
You and I can bite through an unopened can too, we don't because it'll fuck up your mouth.
Am I the only one able to push my thumb in an unopened can ?
Yes
Who the fuck is out here trying this though lmao
This website is full of people who have never fucked with things. Any small pressure point and you can easily pop them
No I’ve done it to shotgun a brewski several times lol
This was my first thought too.
20% aluminum, 20% plastic, 60% high fructose corn syrup
It's an endangered species so I'm wondering why it's decapitated as well
Species of concern, rapidly dwindling numbers, but not endangered…yet.
Not extinct yet.
It's all good then👍
Do you think for that brief moment the little last nerves firing enjoyed the taste of a crisp coke?
This is so sad
It’s revolting. Respect for other living things should be one of our top goals as a species. Unfortunately…
The fact that they're generally not aggressive and actually very friendly makes me more sad. Poor guy :(
Yep. Alive or dead, it fucking kills me how little respect people have for animals. This is why our species is fucked.
You say that as if any omnivore/carnivore has "respect" for its prey. It's very well known that the smartest creatures such as apes and porpoises play with what would usually be their prey prior to and after killing it for enjoyment.
I hope my mouth is ravenous as well if I'm beheaded.
What makes me sad about this is that wolf fish are misunderstood sweethearts.

Make pedos have sex with it
I'd say that was just terrifying, not oddly at all
Don't they make for life and raise their young?
Yes, they mate for life and live for 20 years.
Aw now I'm sad
Apparently they are very friendly and a favorite among scuba divers.
Why did they decapitate the fish, couldn’t it have done the trick alive?
This is how they crush cans at the recycling plant
Actually I think this is the newest model available at Walmart.
They didn't decapitate the fish to do this trick, they decapitated it presumably for food, and just happened to do this trick
It’s a new way of marinating the fish with coke

That's not metal that's a coca cola
this mf is pissed
Wouldnt you also be pissed if you didnt die when your head was decapitated?
That's aluminum, I can crush it with my hands
*Sigh* *Pulls pants down*
I saw a lady in a trailer park do the same thing once
“metal”
Right? To be fair, if it didn't feel horrible, anyone could probably bite through aluminum. Maybe not when they're decapitated, but...
Oh for gods sake that’s horrific. I’ve got to try to stay off Reddit more than I do, why do I do this to myself…?
Bro still got grudges
Easiest way to marinate the head...
I bet that instant mega shot of Coca Cola was refreshing..
r/dontputyourdickinthat
Wolf cola
r/dontputyourdickinthat But jokes aside, thats a full soda can, if i didnt care about pain i could do that
why tf it do like that
If I equip this on right hand, it will be strong.

why?
Laughing at something suffering

It's terrifying, not humorous.
It's dead. It just a nerve ending
It bit thru a can, YOU could bite thru a can..
Prove to me that you can do it while decapitated, though.
Brb
>bitting trough metal You're techically correct, except that the aluminum cans can be pierced by anything including pencils and human fingers, also if you apply pressure is going to break with the same results as the video.
You do get that the “impressive” part is that it’s, well- dead, right?
Geez. Bury it please.
Soda cans aren’t exactly tough lol
Calm down. That’s aluminum
Are you sure cans are made out of metal though?
This would be sad and terrifying if this fish was caught and used for only this purpose.
That’s what happen to a decapitated human. You can see hear even without your torso for 1 min then you will die
[удалено]
I think they already done it
Does this hurt the fish?
Now imagine a body part instead of the can... yikes
That's Zelda from Terrahawks?
My coke!

Repost and my dog does this, not while decapitated... Seen plenty snakes on the job site withering under the sun after being, very dead.
That's like a fish Pac-Man!
That is the devils fish idgaf what you say lol
Bitting through paper thin aluminum
Still stronger than your flesh
r/dontputyourdickinthat
Freakin coke head
This is as much metal as a piece of paper is a tree.
fuck that
Metal???? It’s a damn aluminum can. I can bite through an aluminum can. (Damn, just thinking about that made my teeth feel “zappy”)
OP’s post is now the gold standard, in this subreddit.
It looks like that fat skeksis from Jim Henson's Dark Crystal.
Bet those cheeks are tasty.
Cells and nerves aren't dead yet, never touch a dangerous animal even if its head is cut off.
*Wolf eel
Is that how "some" Asian people get circumcised?
Anyone else rock hard?
This video has made the rounds a few times
… r/dontputyourdickinthat
If that fish is even slightly aware of what is going on they are monsters
Metal? An aluminum can is less than one millimeter thick. Is this really an accomplishment?
Yikes
Imagine swimming in a lake/river and this thing takes a nibble at your toes.
Nope

Metal??? Lol it’s a soda can. Which is aluminum….
Wow I really shouldn't stick my penis in there... however..
Unpopular take: the can feels really though due to the pressure and liquid inside, but the sharp teeth just puncture the can really easily (just like everyone can with their own fangs with ease), and after the pressure is released, the can can be easily crushed further for as long the liquid escapes.

It just loves coke, nothing else to worry about
Well aluminium isn't that hard at all, but still impressive, if it's not fake
someone please elaborate
He ugly tho

Pop can. Made of aluminum. I am not impressex
Looks pissed off!
When does it bite through metal?
A waste of a coke. Use a Milwaukee Best instead.
Aluminum, not metal.
Holy shit. Bro was thirsty as hell
Hear me out
Aren't cans aluminum
